Investor Tam: "I did it leaving SFO going to San Francisco every single time for like a month or two. Three out of the five times it didn't pick up a second person" The company is evaluating 15,000 per year as they're doing one thing at a time and not thinking through these things because they're doing them on their own. He says an entrepreneur would have to show intellectual honesty in order to do what he's trying to do.
